Bought prelude to onslaught v2 on April 20th from Amazon seller. Not here yet. Says "should have shipped may 8"....what the hell! I messaged seller twice, but my account on amazon is using an email so old I can't even access it lol

Vol 2 & 3 are currently holding up an order from IST. May be an overall shortage at the distributors.

For the past while I've been reading and re-reading older stories that the Secret Wars books are going to be referencing. I just finished Squadron Supreme, which I have to admit, didn't really wow me when I read it long long ago. I was young and didn't really get what it was trying to do. Maybe I didn't read the whole series (I know I never read the graphic novel), who knows.

But I picked up the omni recently and sat down and read it slowly the past few weeks and absorbed the art and each word. I loved it. What a thoughtful character based story. So much of that just can't happen in main-line superhero comics. I almost don't want them to do a take on the Squadron for Secret Wars.

I had never read it and bought the omni cause it was cheap as hell, and yeah it was a great story imo. Super glad I snagged it and would recommend it.

They are releasing that huge box set that has anything related to Secret Wars in it, even if just by title (Secret War? seriously). The Omnis took forever to go OOP and only did after they were discounted to all hell. I bought SW for $25 and SW II for $20. Shrinkwrapped.

They will be clearencing this box set too eventually. It collects some truly awful shit. Lipstick on a pig!

I could never pull the trigger on those super cheap Secret Wars omnibuses. 75% off still seeed like too much money.

My LCS has had copies of it at $25 for a year. I can't believe people aren't buying it. Gruenwald could really write an engaging comic. I miss that guy.

Ain't that the truth!

For Marvel, this was a series well ahead of its time and it's probably the closest the company has ever come to making its own "Watchmen" but, sadly, doesn't get the recognition.

A few X-Men Inferno HCs and one Astonishing X-Men Omnibus I think were the items between us.

No one received them, everyone got refunded.

My Death of Cap America order from April 28th still also haven't arrived. Wednesday is the last day for the estimated shipping. So pretty sure another refunded is inbound....

Lack of being able to get ASM 2 is the main reason I don't yet have ASM 1.

On saying that, if anyone has or knows where I can get one of the ASM original printings that is so thick it could be a doorstop (there is one on eBay UK that looks like it has been used as a doorstop), please do let me know as I would very much take that.

I have 1 and refuse to read it because I dont have 2 yet lol --cant read my X2 because I dont have 1 yet....smfh

Amazing spiderman volume 2 on ebay for £105. Cheapest it's been on there for a while

[Balltic05]

You get it already? If not, don't get yout hopes up too high. They are really REALLY s**t at updating their site. Ordered the JLA/Avengers pseudo-Absolute from them a couple of years ago, plus another OOP book they had on their site (can't remember which on). Both times I first got an email that confirmed my order, but a couple of days later I got another one saying it's out of stock.

Hope you'll get it, though.

Quick update on my X-men 1 omnibus and shrinkwrapped Tank Girl bargains. Both arrived in perfect condition. Call me lucky but after a few higher biddings on Punisher Max, Punisher Omnibus and a Green Arrow/Green Lantern slipcase, which I ordered just a few weeks before the Absolute was solicited, I feel that this luck is well deserved. Heads up everybody for those of you that might feel desperate for an item, wonders do happen (at least sometimes).

Still looking for the guy who ordered the 1'000 worldwide missing Inferno OHC and forgot about them in his garage.

I wrote them on the 8th of May saying that I probably want to cancel my order and please provide some info about the book and the answer I got was: "Shipping was at May, 8th."
I can't understand these guys. And I didn't even pay anything. "Invoice is included to the parcel. We ship first - you pay later."
What the hell is this? I mean I know I ordered the book but t was an accident because I just didn't think I can confirm an order without providing ANY payment method.

Sounds like you got a free book

Tell you what, nobody bids against me and I'll take some nice pictures of it for you

I'll definitely be bidding for that one...

Some 'interesting' bidding already happening though, I'm by no means an EBay expert...but the leading bidder has a 100% bid history with the seller (they have bid on over 70 items from the same Seller in the past 30 days).

Seems fairly unusual?!
